Eating out can be expensive, but tasting doesn’t have to be. Hit up a local farmers’ market near you. You can snack on free samples of apple butter and pretend you’re a food critic. “Mmm, notes of autumn and questionable parking.”

Another idea: a picnic potluck with friends. Everyone brings one cheap dish. Suddenly, you have a feast for the price of a bag of chips and a weird dip. Bonus points if someone brings a jar of olives and you fight over the last one.
Try a “food crawl” of gas stations. Yes, really. Buy one bag of chips at three different stations. Compare their snack aisle vibes. It’s dumb, it’s cheap, and it’s the best inside joke you’ll ever have. Pro tip: the one with the cleanest bathroom wins.
